    Male or Female?

    No idea. It started early on and I haven't seen much of anything new though.

    Male or Female?

    Oh, interesting. I guess it's ambiguous for now. I was leaning female myself. We shall see!

    Male or Female?

    Littlefoot is around 1 year 7 months if my calculations are correct. Would he/she show better in 6 months or will he/she just need to grow larger regardless?

    Male or Female?

    Hey everyone! It has been a while since I have last posted about Littlefoot. He/she is outside now 24/7 and is getting closer to 2 years of age. Is it possible to determine a sex yet? Here are a few pictures. Me and my wife think Female. She currently weighs about 740 grams.

    Red foot growth rates?

    My tort went from around 75g to around 350g from April to November. About 10 months old at this point.

    Lighting question.

    Yeah its from lowes. Supposed to give off uvb but probably not nearly as much as a reptisun or other more expensive bulbs.

    Leopard Tortoise growth rate

    I had a leopard baby last year and went through the same thing. Almost made it to anyear old before passing. Where did you buy your hatchling? Trade shows are the worst and that was my mistake.

    Lighting question.

    Hello, Yesterday my "daylight" bulb went out after only about 2 months. I just have a uvb light in there now. Everyone says redfoots don't like bright light anyways. Should I even replace it? Also the uvb light is about 18" from the substrate. That's probably too far away huh? If i got a new...

    Safe sealant or paint for waterfall.

    Anyone know if we can use a clear resin? Water will just be running down it. Just curious if it will still be safe to drink.

    Safe sealant or paint for waterfall.

    Hey everyone, Me and my buddy want to put in a waterfall that will empty into the water dish. But we obviously want to use some kind of paint or sealant for the fake rocks. Any idea what is safe to use for the water to be running down it and not be toxic to drink? I may still use real stones...
